Pic(k) of the Week: From barley comes beer

A barley malt silo outside of Three Taverns Brewery, in Decatur, Georgia, USA. 30 January 2022.

A brewery silo is a container used for bulk storage of unmalted or malted grains, generally made of steel —constructed to maintain the proper moisture level of the grains— with smooth sides and bottom cones [for grain egress into the brewery, often via an augur].
